Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 95 - Joyce's Words of Advice
Exactly ten minutes later, Chelsea arrived at the balcony facing the back of the mansion. "You're here" she heard the woman call without turning back to look at her. As expected, she saw Joyce sitting down on a reclining chair with a book in her hand as she looked over the estate behind the mansion. There was an extra chair beside her this time. Chelsea understood it was for her. "Yes, Ma" she replied and walked up to the chair, smiling as she gracefully sat down. "You said you needed to talk but didn't have anything to talk about right?" Joyce sought an affirmation. "Yes, Ma" Chelsea nodded as she replied. "Well, like I said earlier, I have something we can discuss about" Joyce smiled. Chelsea was all ears. She kept mute in expectancy of what Joyce had to discuss. The elderly woman turned to her with a knowing smile on her face. "Let's talk about Dylan" she said gently. Chelsea's pupils dilated. She wasn't expecting such a topic of discussion at all. She never expected i
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 96 - Official Memories
Cross Enterprises Dylan walked into his company with a blank expression on his face. Immediately he entered, murmurs erupted and the staff tried their best to control the clients who struggled to approach him. He simply headed towards the stairs, not paying any attention to either staff or client who motioned for his attention. "Good Morning, Sir" "Excuse me, Mr. Cross" "Welcome, Sir" "Mr. Cross!" Several greetings and calls, both from staff and clients alike flew at him from all directions. But he paid no attention to any. He simply ignored all of them as he proceeded upwards on the stairs. Then he heard a familiar voice. "Please, dear clients, I implore you to be patient with Mr. Cross. He's just returning from a very important meeting and would like some time alone. Our staff are more than capable to tend to your various needs, requests and businesses" Selina announced from the upper floor unto the ground floor where the clients were seated and attended to. Her words had a
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 97 - Uncovering Truths
As Dylan scrolled through the chats, he saw several messages from different managers, executive personnel and business owners of different companies. These messages weren't business related at all. Most of them were invites to dates, some included alluring details while the rest were basically unofficial complimentary messages. He saw those of Fred Martin, even after he had threatened and warned him. He saw some from other men too. Now, these didn't shock him at all. What shocked him was her responses to each of the messages. The one she wrote to Fred read: "I'm sorry, but I can't accept your offer right now. I already have someone I'm deeply in love with and I wouldn't want to be unfaithful to my heart. Even though he hasn't confessed his love for me yet, I believe he loves me as well but is too scared to admit his feelings to me. But I'm sure he'll confess his feelings to me soon and I don't want to hurt him then. "And also, as a professional of both our respective fields and
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 98 - Coming To Understand
"Well, she sent me a message via my Skype account" Selina finally replied with a nervous smile. Dylan noticed her hesitation before she made the statement. He knew Chelsea never sent any message to her via Skype. He knew they must have met each other somewhere. Selina probably ran into Chelsea during a visit to a hotel or Chelsea made the move to meet her there after finding out she would be there. But he appreciated the way she had changed Selina's thinking and attitude towards life. She had made her a better person both for herself and for the company. He smiled within himself but maintained a blank expression on the outside. "Skype, huh?" he pressed. "Uhm, yes, Sir" Selina answered rather hastily. "Alright. That's nice. Put in the request for the computer" Dylan simply said. "Yes, Sir" Selina nodded and extended the files in her hand to him. "The files you requested, Sir" she indicated as she walked towards him. "Oh, yes. Keep them on my desk. Also have their soft copi
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 99 - Lowering The Net
The Cross Estate Chelsea gently caressed her body as she felt the water spitting out of the shower onto her body. She relished in the feel of her hands, gently running them along her outline as she rinsed her body. She had been giving thought to what Joyce had said and with her equally disturbing thoughts not giving her any breathing space, she decided to cool her whole body down by bathing. When she was done, she felt the calm and coolness in both her body and mind. She laid on her bed and gently closed her eyes. She breathed steadily, inhaling deeply at intervals. She felt she could think clearly now. At least, her mind wasn't troubling her as before. She turned her head to the side and her eyes fell on the tall safe in one corner of the room. The Halliburton briefcase with her two million dollars sat comfortably in there. She hadn't decided what to do with it yet. She didn't even know if she would be able to use it at all. All her needs were taken care of by Dylan. She had no
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 100 - Beatrice, Again
Chelsea couldn't believe her ears. It felt like her imagination had gotten the better of her. What did she think she heard? It was indeed quite funny for her to even fabricate such a thing in her imaginations. It sounded utterly inconceivable. "Are you there?" she heard him call again. This time she was sure it wasn't her imagination playing with her. She slowly lifted her head and looked at him. His face was still shrouded in the same indiscernible expression. Her lips moved of their own accord and before she knew it, she had replied in answer to his call. "Yes" was her simple response. "I asked if you are free to go out with me" he said, his eyes fixed on hers. His expression remained blank but his eyes held a hint of yearning in them. It was as though his words had no feelings attached to them but also at the same time seemed to have an effect on her. "Yes" she heard herself reply again. Her voice was soft and conceding. It was like he was pulling her to him but without phys
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 101 - The Date at Skylands Hotel
The elevator dinged and came to a stop at its destination. The doors slid open and the trio stepped out of it. Beatrice led the way while Chelsea and Dylan followed behind. Dylan still had his hands wrapped around Chelsea's waist. They walked elegantly, as perfectly as a couple could. Beatrice tried her best to keep her composure but both Dylan and Chelsea could see through it. They finally settled down in an exclusively private bar. The entire area was stylishly decorated and Chelsea could tell it was privately done so exclusively for Dylan. It had his taste in it. Predominantly dark with elements of gold here and there. She relished in the beauty of the place while Dylan made their orders. When the attendant left to get their orders, Dylan turned to her. She was forced to look at him. For some reason, the scenery brought back memories. Memories she had tried to forget. She subconsciously withdrew her eyes and put her face down. Dylan exhaled. "It's okay, Chelsea. You're alone wi
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 102 - Reconciliation
As she was still contemplating on what to do, Dylan spoke up. "You don't need to say anything, Chelsea. This is the second time I'm misjudging you and the second time in apologising as well. I'm just hoping it would be my last. I just need you to trust me. I already trust you and I don't care about the ill things you've done or felt or thought because of my actions" he paused. "You were right to do so. I now see what Joyce Ma has been trying to show me and I deeply appreciate it. I truly regret that I didn't see it earlier" he concluded calmly and reached for her hands. He took them in his and gently caressed them. "So, please, let's put the past behind us" he added with a peering look into her eyes. He had her locked in his gaze and she could look nowhere else. Oh, Dylan. You don't know what I've done, she thought. But still, the assurance and positivity in his eyes had a calming effect on her. She instantly felt the weight of her guilt dissipating gradually. She didn't need to d

Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 148 - An End and A Beginning
Dylan got to the mansion alighted the Urus. His entire clothing was roughed up and covered in blood. He looked around and noticed the Bentley Continental missing. He immediately had a bad feeling and dashed inside the mansion. None of the guards asked him any questions. This made him even more worried. He got to Chelsea's room and opened the door without knocking. It was empty. He found the safe open and empty as well. His heart began racing. He dashed to his room but he didn't see her in there either. He felt his knees getting weak. He checked the study and all then rooms on the down floor but he didn't find her inside any. He got upstairs and checked the accessible rooms and halls in the mansion but still nothing. "Chelsea!" he yelled. His voice echoed throughout the entire hallway, back and forth. There was no response. "Chelsea!" "Chelsea!!" "Chelsea!!!" Dylan slowly came down from the steps. He got to the base of the steps and sat down on the last step. His face was deje
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 147 - An Old Rival Resurfaces
Chelsea shuddered on hearing his name. Was this fate playing games with her? Just when she had finally gotten a shot at a happy life. Just when she had decided to start anew. Now her past had come to haunt her future. Why was life cruel? Dylan continued. "He just attacked one of my warehouses. He has challenged me to come face him or he'll destroy my name with the evidence and proof he has on me. I never expected him to stoop so low but I guess Ceaza has always been a scumbag. "I've already made arrangements for Joyce and Derek to be taken to a safehouse. You'll be safer here. I'll be going to face him off at the warehouse now" he added. "Why are you going? It's obvious he just wants to kill you. Why not send someone else? You have capable hands" Chelsea fired. Dylan smiled. "No. This is a personal battle that started years ago. I have to finish it myself" he replied. "I don't want anything happening to you, Dylan. Please don't go?" Chelsea begged. Her eyes became teary. She trul
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 146 - Acceptance
Chelsea was dumbstruck. She had been expecting it but it still came as a shock to her. There he was, Dylan Cross, the King of Miami, the kingpin of the most notorious mafia cartel, the leading businessman in the city, on one of his knees, asking for her hand in marriage. It all seemed so surreal to her. She was stuck in a blur that she didn't know when time flew by. She returned to reality and saw Dylan still positioned on one knee, his hands holding out the box that contained the shiny diamond ring in it. He was patiently waiting for her answer. She was still contemplating. Was this what she really wanted? Was this really her way out from the life she had been living? To be a wife and mother now? Her life events flashed before her eyes. It was a big decision. One that would change her life forever. She had to make the right choice. As she was still thinking about it, she heard a familiar voice behind her and turned. "Aunty Chelsea!" It was Derek. He wore the same suit as his fath
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 145 - A Second Surprise
Decorations were at their most glamorous. The lighting, the music and every aspect of the hall depicted a billionaire's taste. The guests had already started arriving. And true to Dylan's words, they were really the most prominent and powerful people in the society. Business tycoons, politicians, powerful billionaire families, and people of equal calibre were in attendance. In the garage, there were no cars less than the best of the best. Most cars there were even the only pieces ever produced. Customized and special editions. Chelsea stood from the balcony above as she observed the guests. She had her hair done at the last hour and put on her special dress that Dylan had imported without her even knowing. It was a white gown with designs of gold on it. She didn't even know when he planned and organized everything without her having a hint. What even surprised her more was the hall. She never knew the mansion had such an enormous hall within it. There were places she hadn't explored
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 144 - An Introductory Party
Chapter 144 - An Introductory Party Two Months Later Dylan and Chelsea were now a public item. The news, social and other media carried it in droves. It was a blast. Different stories rose up. Several hypothesis were raised and conclusions drawn. It was a highlight for the city of Miami and Florida at large. Both the public society and the underground world were taken by surprise. They went to parties together. They shopped and dined together. They went on trips together. They practically did everything a couple did together. Always holding hands as they walked. They shared kisses in public. Even on interviews, Dylan always mentioned her name and called her his partner. There was never a shortage of pictures and clips on the media. The news also transcended the borders of Miami, Florida and America, reaching far across the globe. Dylan's cell and inboxes were flooded with calls and texts from both old acquaintances and new. Some were subtle with their questions while others went st
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 143 - The Aftermath
Inside The Hades Room Dylan held Clara's body as it gradually turned cold. Her eyes still stared at him with pure hate and intense resentment. He gradually dropped to his knees, his eyes fixed on the face of his ex-wife. She was beautiful, there wasn't a doubt about that. She had to be beautiful to be Dylan Cross's wife of course. But she also had a darkness in her that was too contaminating, it eroded her beauty. He couldn't quite understand why she hated him so much. People tend to accept society as it is and live with it. But she had to go out of her way to hate him and want him dead. Not that it was possible anymore. But still, she was once his wife. "But... you could have at least shot her in the leg. You could have rendered her immobile. You didn't have to kill her, Victor" Dylan said gently. It was plainly obvious he didn't didn't her dead. Maybe he still had a soft spot for her. "I'm sorry Pope. But I doubted that would have stopped her. I'd rather prefer you lose your ex-
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 142 - A Bitter Death
Clara opened her eyes and met Dylan's cold stare. She could see the steam from the nose if the pistol. Her ears still whirred a little. She turned slowly and saw a hole in the space beside he head on the chair she sat on. A bullet was embedded in it. A real bullet! He had deliberately missed her head. Even so, this was unexpected. Did he really just shoot at her? "Is that supposed to scare me?" she mustered up the courage to say. Dylan smiled. "It wasn't meant to scare you. It was simply meant to warn you. My patience is simply a thread. And like all threads, it runs out. I'd hate for you to be the person who makes the last pull" he said calmly. He was so calm that it sounded too dark and evil. Clara knew it was best not to provoke him further. She was already aware that he didn't love her anymore. All he had for her was just out of regard for her being Derek's biological mother. That aside, she was just like any other lady in his eyes. She knew how bad he was when he snapped. Sh
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 141 - The Ex-Wife, Clara
"What did you say?" Dylan's pupils were dilated. Victor immediately turned around and saw Dylan already up from his sit. He had grabbed Nick by the neck, lifting him and shaking him vehemently. "What did you damn say, Nick?!" Dylan screamed. Nick was still dejected. His face still dropped downwards everytime Dylan shook him. He couldn't look Dylan in the eyes. He couldn't look the boss he had betrayed in the eyes. "It's the truth, Pope. Madam Clara was the one who hired us" he replied quietly. Dylan gritted his teeth. He couldn't believe his ears. The same woman he had once called his wife had sent an assassin to kill him. The same woman who had born his child. It sounded rather inconceivable to him. True, he was dark and bloody. He had done many despicable things to people. But this one outdid him. To think that Clara would go this far. And Nick just said "us". There were more? "Us?" he gently asked, his teeth still gritting against each other. "How many of you did she hire?"
Swindling The Devilish Mafia Don Chapter 140 - The Culprit Is Caught
Dylan and Chelsea laughed and discussed as they ate and drank, occasionally having their little disagreements and fights until one conceded to the other, of course always Dylan. He knew Chelsea would never accept defeat. So if he didn't, the argument would continue. He wasn't ready for that. After much pleasant talks and exchange of passionate words, Dylan felt it was time to do the deed. If he didn't do it now, the date would drag on for long and Chelsea would grow even more suspicious. He had to quell her curiosity now while still stalling for time so the assassin would make his move. Just as he reached into his inner coat pocket, they heard a loud sound. Bang! It was a gun shot. If Dylan heard well, it was a sniper. That was it! The assassin had taken the bait. He stood up abruptly, much to the confusion of Chelsea. His hand dropped the ring case and took hold of his phone instead. He brought it out and immediately dialed Victor. "Vic" he spoke into the phone. "Already on it,
